gelato making EXPERIENCE
FIRST WINTER 2026/2027 DATES ARE OUT!
Our Gelato Making Experience runs on Saturday afternoon, 3 to 4PM, from November to February.
We open the door to our state of the art Gelato Lab and offer you the only hands-on gelato making experience in the Greater Philadelphia Area and beyond.
What to expect & what is included:
This experience is for entertainment purposes only, these are NOT professional gelato classes
Enjoy a welcome espresso, tea or hot chocolate drink and a slice of our gluten friendly, signature chocolate Tenerina Torte from Vincenzo’s hometown of Ferrara, Italy
An informative and entertaining 60-minute gelato making experience with Amy, our amazing gelato & pastry chef
Learn about authentic, artisanal Italian gelato and how we utilize fresh ingredients to craft it
Work in pairs to create 2 gelato flavors (each pair will work on both flavors, making an equal portion of each batch) from scratch
Flavors we make are Pure Madagascar Vanilla (with real, fresh vanilla beans, hand scraped by you) and Sea Salt Caramel (with homemade caramel and pink Himalayan sea salt). Both flavors are also gluten friendly.
1 pint per flavor, per person (2 total pints per person) of the gelato made in class to take home and enjoy (a $28 value)
Please note that our experiences are meant for an audience of 16 years and older. If any participant is under the age of 18 please let us know at checkout or via email, and they must be accompanied by an adult.
DISCLAIMERS:
Our gelato base will be already made because it must rest overnight to fully hydrate, following the authentic Italian gelato tradition.
We are not able to share full recipes of our flavors, we use professional machines & ingredients and will not translate to home gelato making.
AGE LIMIT
Please note that our experiences are meant for an audience of 16 years and older. If any participant is under the age of 18 please let us know at checkout or via email, and they must be accompanied by an adult.

For more information please email vincenzo@gemelligelato.com
—> CANCELLATION & RE-SCHEDULING POLICY <—
REFUNDS: Because of the nature of the event (once a date is sold out, we do not take any more reservations) a full refund will be issued only if your reservation is cancelled at least 21 days (3 weeks) before the experience scheduled date, cancellation can be made via phone (West Chester Store) or email (vincenzo@gemelligelato.com). This will allow us enough time to re-start marketing for the event and hopefully find new attendees.
RE-SCHEDULING: We understand that life happens, therefore you will be able to re-schedule your experience to a future available date up to 7 days (1 week) before your current class scheduled date. For groups of 3 or more, the deadline is 14 days (2 weeks). Please be advised that you can only re-schedule once.
NO-SHOWS: will unfortunately forfeit their experience and will NOT receive any refund. You can however still contact us to collect your pints.
Classes with less than 4 attendees will be re-scheduled to a later date, if that date does not work for you and your party you can request to be moved to a different date or for a full refund.
